Cornwall - This was a case of being in the right place at the right time. I was sitting in my car by the water and the kingfisher flew up to a rock for a perfect photo setting.

Ahmad Shah: Excellent detailed shot, Yes that is true, photography is always being in the right place at the right time.
BrianMorin: As I'm sure you know from experience, this is a difficult bird to get close to. I wasn't on top of it but close enough for a good capture.

They have a nest nearby on a rock face. The female is noticeably larger than the male and this particular female is larger than others I've seen so she's at least 1/3 larger.

Details: adult

This was a late day surprise. I didn't see two birds picking up grit on the side of a dirt road until the last second because of the low light. I stopped only about a car length away from one as it worked its way back into the bush. I had no time to check camera settings and was worried about shooting too slow so I hoped for the best. I manged three shots of several in fairly good focus.

Ahmad Shah: Great capture.
Brian Morin: Luck was on my side. If the bird had flown it would have been game over but it decided to walk away casually, giving me 3 seconds to grab shots before it was in the brush.
